Success stories on community-led initiatives in AP

New Concept brings out "United we Stand" - a compendium of positive stories based on interventions carried out by HLFPPT.

United we Stand is a booklet of success stories of community-led advocacy in Andhra Pradesh. This was the result of the Swagati Project implemented by HLFPPT. These stories are an emotive account of the ground realities faced by positive people and their families and are based on narratives exchanged with community members and organizations working in the field.

These unheard voices give a graphic account of experiences, emotions and feelings as the key population gradually learns to assert their rights as individuals.
